Halelu 128

1 POMAIKAI ka poe a pau i makau aku ia Iehova, A hele hoi ma kona mau alanui.

[A Song of Ascents.] Blessed is everyone who fears the LORD, who walks in his ways.

2 E ai no oe i ka waiwai o kou mau lima, He pomaikai no kou, a he pono no hoi.

For you will eat the labor of your hands; you will be blessed, and it will be well with you.

3 E like no kau wahine me na kumuwaina hua nui, Ma na aoao o kou hale; E like no hoi kau mau keiki me na laau oliva, E ku puni ana i kou papaaina.

Your wife will be as a fruitful vine, in the innermost parts of your house; your children like olive plants, around your table.

4 Aia hoi! pela e hoopomaikaiia mai ai ke kanaka, Nana e makau aku ia Iehova.

Look, thus is the man blessed who fears the LORD.

5 E hoomaikai mai o Iehova ia oe mai Ziona mai; A e ike no oe i ka pono o Ierusalema, I na la a pau o kou ola ana.

May the LORD bless you out of Zion, and may you see the good of Jerusalem all the days of your life.

6 E ike no hoi oe i na keiki o kau poe keiki, A me ka maluhia maluna o ka Iseraela.

Yes, may you see your children's children. Peace be upon Israel.
